Precautions to take when using the
pattern lock.
It is very important to remember the
unlock pattern you set. You can no
longer access your phone if you use
an incorrect pattern five times. You
have five chances to enter your unlock
pattern, PIN or password. If you have
used all 5 opportunities, you can try
again after 30 seconds. (Or, if you
preset the backup PIN, you can use
the backup PIN code to unlock the
pattern.)

to log in with your Google account to
unlock your phone.
